    We have been going to Nopo since we moved back to GR. It has the most urban menu in town. Issac is a great chef and the drinks are trendy and good with one large ice-cube. The deconstructed Salmon Wontons are amazing. The crab cake Benedict could easily be shared along with an order of truffle fries. I never expected to like them as much as I do. Cheers

    Lovely restaurant. Great place to enjoy a little metropolitan chic in the north woods. Great menu.

    Service and food was ok - was not happy that I was being charged a 20% gratuity onto my bill. Not only that, when I asked where that 20% was going to(hoping it was going directly to the server) it's going directly to the owner... On top of that, the receipt doesn't allow you to tip the servers directly through a card transaction so if you want to tip the servers, you need to have cash on hand only.. I found this very strange and unprofessional for a business to be doing and felt bad for the employees.

    What an amazing place! Hidden away behind Target, I never would have known about this gem if not for a friend. I can't wait to try everything on the menu! The Bananas Fosters French Toast was to die for. Waitress was quick and attentive. It's small & quaint, so you may need a reservation for a larger group.

    Breakfast prime rib! Delicious!

    Amazing brunch menu! Very clean and staff are amazing. We love to come here often on weekends with the family!

    I ordered a Bloody Mary and the Salmon and Lox bagel with a side of crispy bacon (of course). It was all was DELICIOUS and just wanted I wanted! It was nice to find a cute new breakfast spot in Grand Rapids. Definitely will be going back :)

    Waffle, Turkish coffee

    Came here on a snowy Sunday hoping to warm up with a nice latte. The place is stunning. I love the ambiance of it. Service was a little slow considering the place only had 2 other tables in it but they were busy working trying to get closed up for a couple weeks so maybe that was why. I ordered the Turkish - latte with ground cardamom and honey. It was delicious. Perfect amount of spice. I also ordered a waffle to snack on. Everything was delicious and would definitely come back my next time in town.

    Comfortable and modern seating

    We dropped in on a Saturday night, dead in the middle of prime time (without a reservation, my…read morebad.) Our wait was brief and we were seated within 10 minutes. Sarah H. went out of her way to spoil us rotten. SERVICE SCORE -- 10+ The boss ordered the jumbo shrimp (the oxymoron still makes me laugh) and she found them to be satisfactory but not quite stellar. I went with the prime rib and got exactly the cut I asked Sarah to describe to the chef and it was done to a perfect medium rare. For my side, I chose the shrimp bisque and had I known how great that was going to be, I'd have skipped the steak and just ordered a bottomless bowl of the bisque ... YES, it was that good!!! FOOD SCORE -- 4 of 5. But, let's talk about the elephant in the room ... every soul in the house was shouting over the other dozen people at their respective tables... the noise level on a Saturday during the evening rush made me wish I had known to bring earplugs or noise-canceling headphones. The noise level might have been partially attributable to the very generous pour that every glass seemed to have. AMBIENCE SCORE -- Ungraded. All in, though, we had a decent meal at a fair price and got top-shelf service from Sarah (the highlight of the visit.) If we were ever in town visiting again, we'd go back.

    our server was great, the shrimp app came out relatively fast which is great, it tasted good as…read morewell we finished it. my boyfriend got a marg that was not very good. then we waited a long time for our food, to the point i had looked at my life360 on my phone to see how long we had been there, over 45 minutes. our server looked at our empty table and asked if we got our food to which we said no ma'am, she ran to the kitchen and came back with our food, which looked like it had been sitting under/on the heat lamp for over 15 minutes as seen in the photo, i mixed thru it and there oil/butter was completely separated from the sauce. pretty gross. i just ate the scallops themselves which were good my boyfriend's sandwich bread was hard as a rock. our waiter was sweet about it tho and gave us 25 percent off, we still tipped her over 20 percent because kitchen/food runner mistakes are not her fault. started off good but ended not so great. overall would not recommend the food or the drinks unfortunately. but again the servers are very nice.

    I hate having to give 2 stars, but I just did not have a great experience. I was in town for work…read moreand stopped here for dinner. I was seated at a high top in the bar area. It took probably 10 minutes for anyone to greet me. There were servers walking past me and I was so confused why no one said hi, or we will be right with you. Nothing. There was a couple of women at a table near me that must have been employees, because the servers kept going over there at chatting. I ordered the salmon with au gratin potato's and Brussel sprouts. The salmon was cooked nicely, but everything was so extremely salty that it made it difficult to enjoy. I tried scraping off as much of sauce on the salmon so I could finish it. Overall, I was really disappointed and won't be back.

    We had a great experience here. Apparently it's also called the Timberlodge Grill so if your GPS…read morebrings you to either spot, you are in the right place. I chose the tenderloin medallions stuffed with onions and mushrooms and wrapped in bacon. For sides, I had the Caesar salad, green beans, and mashed potatoes. I wish I would have had one more medallion for the cost of the meal but it was quite tasty. Husband had panko shrimp which was also quite good. Entrees come with a hot-out-of-the-oven popover. Yummm. Service was excellent. It would be great if they could create more of a dinner atmosphere. The lighting is like being in a conference room.
